Thread: Why have women accomplished so little throughout human history?

......jerk.

women have done alot its just not taught in schools

What a politically incorrect question that is almost certainly going to result in you getting flamed!

In all honesty, I think that the reason why throughout most of history men have made more discoveries/advancements can be largely attributed to societal suppression of women. Basically, being told as a gender that they are inferior and such things are "men's work." Fewer women in the fields of discovery (WAY fewer) naturally would lead to fewer advancements by women. We've kept them in the kitchen makin sammitches or taking care of the kids for so long, only a handful of them ever manage to shake off society's expectations of them, thereby allowing them to achieve so much more. Women's liberation is still a relatively recent advancement in and of itself for the majority of the world and there are still plenty of countries where women are simply not allowed to work in those fields. It is illegal for women in some countries to even receive anything resembling an education. Over time, as these countries slowly begin accepting women's equal capacity, I think that you will see an exponential increase in women's "accomplishments" as you describe them.
